TO MARK the centenary of the sinking of the Titanic this April a musical and exhibition about the tragedy will be shown in Bromley.

Kevin Gauntlett, director of Titanic the Musical, is inviting any family members of people on board the ill-fated ship to come to a special performance on April 14.

The last night of the show will be performed on 14 April 2012, exactly 100 years after the sinking.

The musical, which will be performed at Churchill Theatre in Bromley, is of particular local interest because it features Harold Bride - the Bromley man who was junior wireless officer on board.

There is a plaque remembering Mr Bride, who survived the tragedy, on Ravensbourne Road.

There will also be an exhibition on display containing memorabilia from the Titanic's maiden voyage.
